cam sakkara - altar/alter lyrics
[verse 1]
i was building temples out of words
esteem bowed to what i heard
looking for the love
that made me feel like i was
worth something in this world
voids from when i was a girl
their opinions of me
i put them above you
[pre+chorus]
got caught up in it all
i forgot to first seek you
jesus
[chorus]
tear down my altars
give me the kingdom
only you can alter
my heart
[verse 2]
i was making idols out of dreams
no sleep, building legacies
chased desires of mine
with 5 to 9s
but did i every ask if they were yours?
if you said no, would i change my course?
focused on the grind
instead of making time for you
[pre+chorus]
got caught up in it all
i forgot to first seek you
jesus
oh, jesus
[chorus]
tear down my altars
give me the kingdom
only you can alter
my heart
[bridge]
brick by brick
stone by stone
tear em down
till they’re gone
lord, i can’t do this alone
change me
till every part of me you own
lord, give me you
all else, it can move
to make sp+ce for alterations
that’s a fitting room
make my heart mold to your desires
throw the pedestals in the fire
[chorus]
tear down my altars
give me the kingdom
only you can alter
my heart
